Virtual Training

Are your virtual instructor-led trainings world class?

Learning leaders need to trust that virtual instructors can make learning transfer happen in the virtual classroom. This can only happen if virtual instructors demonstrate the specific virtual skills and behaviors and instructional designers craft a workshop that is designed to take advantage of the virtual room.

ACCELERATE for Instructors

Maintaining the quality of your virtual training investment. How do you maintain high performance in your instructor-led virtual training? You have made the initial investment in virtual delivery of your learning programs. As with any launch, the new challenge is making sure your investment sticks. The question is “How are you maintaining the quality?” Without a sustainment process, your fine-tuned machine could fall into disrepair.

Regularly assessing the virtual instructors who deliver your virtual workshops is critical to maintain a quality product. Accelerate is our virtual training sustainment program that assesses the quality of the virtual instructor’s facilitation.

Virtual Confidence

Helping Experts & Leaders Share Knowledge in the Virtual Room. Subject matter experts and leaders are frequently asked to share their knowledge or to assist delivering virtual workshops. In an evoke virtual survey, 76% of presenters in the virtual room said they had difficulty getting people engaged or getting feedback from participants. Engaging in the virtual room is very different from face-to-face. Without a set of best practices, the risk is clear — lack of engagement, leads to lack of adoption. You need to help your experts be successful in the virtual environment.

The Virtual Confidence program is designed to provide an introduction to best practices for virtual delivery.

This half-day, fast-paced program will provide participants with the opportunities to:

Gain confidence in delivering in the virtual classroom

Develop strategies to leverage a facilitator’s guide and make it their own

Designing for the Virtual Classroom Workshop

Repurpose curriculum for the virtual training environment. More and more of our courses are moving from face-to-face classrooms into virtual environments. Our goal as virtual training designers is to support a high level of learning and knowledge transfer in the virtual classroom. This goes beyond polls and quizzes in the virtual classroom. No matter what virtual learning platform you use, we believe that adoption of some key best practices can help you design more effective virtual learning programs for delivery in virtual classrooms.

The program is composed of four modules.

Design for participant engagement in the virtual classroom

Create a virtual community

Guide the virtual learning process

Practicum: An opportunity to receive both peer and master instructor feedback on your virtual course design
